Leakproof kids water bottle - does it exist?

Any recommendations for kids water bottles (for a 5 year old) that don't leak? Ideally dishwasher safe too. My son just takes a cheap Nuby one we've had for ages to school but it leaks and he keeps putting it in his book bag Sad Amazon reviews are so mixed so thought I'd ask here - thank you!

My kids have had Tinc water bottles for 2 years and they are still in fantastic condition. Used almost daily, they have never leaked and are dishwasher safe!

You can buy them from John Lewis.

The problem is often that the child doesn’t bother fastening the water bottle properly, be it screw, pop or whatever fitting.
Sometimes they don’t even shove it in the basket the right way up, which is fun for everyone else.

polar gear

For the more eco friendly super sparrow sports head bottles are good. But they are much heavier than plastic.

I have a Nalgene bottle that has never leaked. I bought the kid's size (330ml) as I didn't want to carry a big bottle around with me.

There are lots of different colour options and varying prices on Amazon.

Which is why DS with SN has the polargear flip lid bottles. If he doesn't close it properly the flow is at least stemmed. Although Actually the bottle is about as easy to close as you can get and they last years. We tried a lot Blush
